Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 366 Sir, Have You Seen My Mother? (2 more)
Zhao Xi said that he wanted to ask for advice on Go, but Song Wei couldn't say anything to refute, so he could only nod in agreement.

Not long after, Zhao Xi, Song Wei and Song Yuanbao left Qianqing Palace one after another.

It's late at night, the lights on the long corridor are warm, and the wind is cool.

Zhao Xi is the king, he does not speak, no one dares to speak out at will.

It was rare for Song Yuanbao to see his father in the palace. In fact, he had a lot to say, but he chose to remain silent.

After walking for a while, Zhao Xi finally asked Song Wei about Go.

Song Wei was very patient and answered one by one.

I was afraid that he would not understand, so I explained it very carefully.

Zhao Xi listened quietly, and when the other party finished speaking, he smiled, "Song Hanlin really surprises people every time."

No wonder his father insisted on keeping Song Wei even though he was so angry to death.

Such "upright" and powerful courtiers are rare in the court.

Zhao Xi was even thinking that if he became a king in the future, he would definitely find a minister like Song Wei.

Song Wei said: "This humble minister has little talent and little learning, His Highness is absurd."

Zhao Xi remained silent.

A few years ago, if the person who could make all the judges in the room argue with the emperor in order to help him become the number one scholar had little talent, then there would be no one in the world who could be worthy of the word "talented".

At the gate of the imperial city, Song Wei stopped, turned around and said goodbye to Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xidao: "On the way here just now, you father and son didn't talk much. There is no one else in this place right now. I'll take a step first. If you have something to say, you can talk alone."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Xi turned around and left.

Song Wei glanced at Song Yuanbao and asked how he was doing.

Song Yuanbao said: "It's not much different from before."

Anyway, that person is still unshakably strict with self-discipline, and his life is as boring as it is.

Song Yuanbao felt that if he was asked to choose between the crown prince and the common people, he would definitely choose the latter, and the former was too tiring.

I never knew that the master of human beings suffers from hardships, but it can be so bitter.

Song Wei asked him again, "When will your companion reading task be finished?"

Thinking of this, Song Yuanbao became even more dizzy, "I've already checked, His Highness means that I will not be released from the palace until I get married."

Speaking of this, Song Yuanbao went out of his way to look at Song Wei's face, "Father, why don't you arrange a wife for me as soon as possible? In this way, I can leave the palace early."

"Nonsense!" Song Wei frowned, "How can marriage be a joke? What's more, you are only 14 years old this year, and you are not yet married. At least you will be over eighteen. When you understand what 'responsibility' is, I will let you go." Let your mother arrange marriage for you."

"Eighteen, isn't that four years?" Song Yuanbao wailed, "You are really cruel, our family does not need to inherit the throne, so do I have to work so hard?"

Song Wei glanced at him, "After a few years of hard work, you won't have a chance to do it all over again in the future."

It's not like Song Yuanbao doesn't understand these principles, "Okay, I'll come for another four years, but Dad has to promise me one thing."

"what's up?"

"This year is the imperial examination year, and I will take the provincial examination."

Song Yuanbao is a student of the Imperial Academy, and now he is studying with the eldest prince, and he is a scholar, so he can skip the previous county examination, government examination and hospital examination, and directly participate in the county examination.

Song Wei asked: "Is it too early to end at the age of 14? I'm afraid you are not ready."

Song Yuanbao didn't dare to pat his chest to guarantee that he would win, he just said: "Quan should practice in advance, it doesn't matter if you don't win, just make persistent efforts after three years."

Anyway, he was only 17 three years later, and his father started the imperial examination at the age of 28. When he was 17, he didn't know what he was doing!
Song Wei is very pleased that his son can have his own ideas, "If you want to go home to prepare for the exam, please let me know in advance."

"Ah."

Watching Song Wei get into the carriage, Song Yuanbao turned back to Yutang Palace.

-

When Song Wei returned home, the lights were still on in Wen Wan's courtyard, obviously waiting for him.

Seeing the man, Wen Wan's heart finally fell to the ground, "Master is back? Have you eaten in the palace yet?"

Song Wei shook his head, saying that he forgot to eat while playing chess with the emperor.

"Then I'll ask Yun Cai to go to the kitchen and bring some food." Wen Wan said while digging out a set of clean clothes from the closet and handing them to him, motioning him to change the official robe.

Song Wei took it, and instead of walking away immediately, he asked her, "It's so late, why are you still awake?"

Wen Wan didn't admit that she was waiting for him, but said that she was not sleepy, "Someone came to the palace before and said that you might come back later today, so I asked my parents to rest first. for a while."

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help yawning.

"..." Gentle and embarrassing.

Song Wei said: "Go to sleep if you're sleepy, if you have anything to say, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

Wen Wan pretended to have something in her heart, so she couldn't sleep, "Why has Mr. Xiang gone for so long? Did the emperor make things difficult for you?"

Song Wei shook his head and said no.

"Then he agreed not to go to Jiangnan?"

"Ah."

"Great!" Wen Wan said excitedly: "As long as you don't go, the emperor can avoid an assassination, and I don't have to worry about you anymore, Mr. Xiang."

Song Wei smiled, "Now you can go to sleep with peace of mind, right?"

"Then I'm really going." Wen Wan told him, "You eat by yourself, I won't serve you."

After Wen Wan rested, Song Wei went to the back room to change the official robe behind the screen.

Yun Cai quickly brought the food, Song Wei didn't have much appetite, but in order not to worry Wen Wan, he took a few symbolic bites with his chopsticks.

When Song Wei was lying down, Wen Wan felt the movement, opened her eyes, and saw that the lights in the room had gone out, she tilted her head, and could vaguely see the man's elegant and handsome facial outline.

Knowing that he was still asleep, she said softly, "Did Xianggong see Yuanbao today?"

Song Wei was silent for a moment, and asked instead, "Why aren't you sleeping?"

The gentle voice was sleepy and soft, "I slept for a while, and woke up again."

"Woke up by me?"

"No, it's just my own shallow sleep."

Sensing that she was worried, Song Wei got up and lit the bedside lampshade without further words.

In the halo of yellow light, a melancholy expression appeared on his gentle and fair face.

Unable to adapt to the sudden light, she instinctively reached out to block it, and the jade bracelet on her wrist slid down her forearm because of this movement.

Song Wei saw at a glance that it was jewelry left by her mother-in-law.

"Why don't you take it off to sleep?" Song Wei asked with a smile.

Wen Wan said "Oh", and said that she forgot, lying lazily and not wanting to move, she handed her wrist in front of him, "Help me take it off."

Song Wei supported her forearm with one hand, while the other hand caught the bracelet, and was about to slide it out slowly, when Wen Wan suddenly asked: "Master, you know so much about gold, stone and jade, can you see the workmanship of this bracelet?" Where did it come from?"

Song Wei's movement of taking the bracelet paused for a while, his eyes turned to her, and his eyes met for a moment, Song Wei said first, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

With a gentle smile, "Let me just say, how can someone as expert as Xianggong not be able to see it, it's just that you haven't told me."

When speaking, the gentle gaze never left his eyes, "I forgot to say, right?"

Such a conversation made Song Wei not know how to answer, and his heart was a little nervous.

"Wan Wan..."

Wen Wan still smiled, "It's okay, it's okay if you forgot to mention it, tell me now, where did this bracelet come from?"

While speaking, she had already sat up, took off the bracelet by herself, took his hand, and placed it gently in his palm, "If Mr. Xiang is afraid of losing sight, I'll go and light up all the lights."

Seeing that she was about to get out of bed, Song Wei clenched the hand holding the bracelet tightly, and the other hand hastily stretched out to hold her slender wrist.

Wen Wan turned her back to him, her back was obviously stiff.

A man's soft voice came from next to his ear, "Did Wan Wan go to the pawn shop?"

Wen Wan didn't speak, and stared blankly at the moths that had been fluttering outside the lampshade.

"Wanwan?"

She was stunned for a long time, and murmured, "Can't I go to the pawn shop?"

She didn't hear the man's answer, so she asked again: "My husband never let me pawn those jewelry, just because he didn't want me to use my dowry, or was he afraid that I might find something out of it?"

After Wen Wan finished speaking, she turned sideways slowly, put her hands on her knees, and looked directly at Song Wei.

It was cold at night, Song Wei was afraid that she would catch the wind, so he naturally reached out and picked up the thin quilt and put it on her body.

Seeing his unmoved appearance, Wen Wan was aroused a little annoyed, "You said that husband and wife should be honest with each other, I never hid anything from you, I even told the biggest secret of myself I told you all, so why can't you tell me the truth?"

Song Wei quietly listened to her, a familiar smile appeared on her lips, and she reached out to pat her on the head, "Little girl, what are you thinking?"

His reaction made Wen Wan completely unable to lose her temper, and felt a little uncomfortable.

"Even if these things come from the craftsmanship of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what does that mean?" Song Wei said: "There is no obvious mark on the jewelry. Even if it is handed down from the palace, we cannot rely on these things to determine the identity of the owner behind it."

Wen Wan didn't seem to be listening to him, and cut off the man's words, "Before I was three years old, my mother was still alive, and my husband was already a teenage boy at that time, so there shouldn't be any deviation in his memory. You saw my mother ?"
